Is “hot saucing” bad parenting? Any punishment you hope to have work on a subconscious level seems a bit oppressive. |

Why would my 9 week old refuse to nurse from breast? Perhaps talk to your local hospital. They may have people trained on it, if perhaps called something different. |

Is there any scientific evidence in favor of co-sleeping with children? For those that have lost, condolences. Note that many children have also died in cribs. So it's not indicative of one or the other. For those interested in co-sleeping, there are things called 'side car sleepers' that are designed for this where it's an add-on to the bed sized just for the child. This makes it less likely that an adult could roll over into it. |

How do my wife and I stop our son from learning to swear from us? That's true. But remember that kids of that age can say anything and they're still considered cute. ;) |

How do my wife and I stop our son from learning to swear from us? Well, you stated it's difficult, and I agree. I guess my opinion is that kids learn these words regardless if you're using them or not. The better strategy, IMHO, is to make sure the kids understand when it's not appropriate to use them. |

Recommended reading for first-time father? Don't sweat it. No one is ready to be a parent. It just happens. As long as you care (and as someone asking this question, you appear to be someone that cares) you'll figure things out. Besides, once the kid is born, you'll be reading books like crazy every night before bed. ;) |

When do you encourage your children to move out? No, it's not really. It all depends. Everyone person and family is different. |

How can I help my child handle peer pressure regarding television? point one: kids are not adults. It's unfair for adults to assume kids can deal with life the same way. point two: I agree. point three: an important thing to communicate but rarely will help a situation. Sadly, being different when growing up is a challenge for a lot of kids. Not that that should mean kids should conform...just that it's a challenge. |

How can I help my child handle peer pressure regarding television? I was making a point that it's hard to escape pop-culture. If I offended any Scientologists, Antarctic scientists or the Amish, my apologies. |

When and how is circumcision done? While that site is certainly a resource to consider, it clearly is leaning towards one side of the argument. |

What are guidelines for parents to use in giving advice/guidance to older teens? If they haven't driven enough of their own guidance into him after 9 years of home schooling, nothing will. I don't blame the kid for thinking it's time to detach. In the end, all they can really do is offer up that they'll be there if he's ever in need of advice. |

Is it okay to let a baby cry at bedtime? Go with your gut. There's dozen's of theories of cry vs. coddle. But in the end, you're the mom. You gotta go with your gut. |
